The Bitcoin ETF sector in the US continues to attract attention due to significant accumulations. As of now, the total assets in Bitcoin have reached 1.25 million BTC.
Market Leaders in Bitcoin ETFs
BlackRock stands as a leader in the Bitcoin ETF market with its iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which currently controls over 700,000 BTC, equivalent to $75.9 billion. In just two trading days, IBIT added 1,388 BTC, confirming strong interest from institutional investors.
IBIT Performance Against Traditional ETFs
Since its launch in January 2024, IBIT has delivered an 82.67% return, outperforming even BlackRock's flagship S&P 500 ETF. While Bitcoin has increased by 16.5% year-to-date, the S&P 500 has risen by only 6.16%.
Trends in Supply and Demand for Bitcoin
In 2025, there is a significant imbalance between supply and demand for Bitcoin. Data shows that US Bitcoin ETFs have bought around $28.22 billion worth of Bitcoin, while only $7.85 billion worth has been mined globally. This trend raises expectations of potential price increases for Bitcoin in the future.
The Bitcoin ETF sector in the US continues to gain popularity, particularly through BlackRock's IBIT. With demand significantly outpacing supply, simplifying the ETF approval processes could be the next step towards market expansion.
